    I'd love to join in with this... but I have a couple of questions first.

    How am I going to do this? I realise I can do car boot sales, and sell things on Ebay/play.com, but other than selling my belongings - how else do I make £10 a day?

    Any guidance would be much appreciated - I'm sure it is acheivable!

    Thanks in advance.


    Ok there are loads of things you can do, ie Mystery shopping, clickthrus, cash back on anything you HAVE to buy, quidco ( apply for things, join bingo sites etc etc), matched betting, overtime, surveys, we have also had people who have done one off jobs for family and friends for a little money ( less than a professional so everyone wins ) . The options are endless, also just read the thread everyday and what other people are doing will help and inspire you.

    EVERYONE I am sorry I have made about a million posts in the last hour but I always make a point of reading every post and I forget all the questions if I wait til I have read everything and then post. So apologises, and lets get starting.

    Well, I'm living proof that this challenge is fabulous - I've just signed off my total on the January challenge of £932.57 - £30.08 average a day! Whilst I'd have made some of that anyway, the aim of £10 a day has made me do things I'd probably not have bothered with otherwise - it's amazing how motivating it is to have a relatively small target to work towards, as I'd previously thought that making loads of effort for small amounts just wasn't worth the bother. When you owe £80k, you think that a fiver isn't going to make the slightest difference, but when you're aiming for £10, a fiver (or a quid, or 20p!) is a significant part of it, and it really does all add up!

    My advice to anyone who is starting out on this challenge is to find the £10 a day for January challenge (or previous ones) and read it the whole way through - it's amazing how many ideas you get from other people's successes and everyone is always really willing to share.

    Feb isn't likely to be anywhere near a success for me as Jan was as I've now got less than 6 wks before baby, not very mobile now, and moving house imminently (great combination!), but I'm determined to make the target of £290 somehow.

    Good luck everyone! And here goes...!
